Bought it on Amazon. I just search for 1/10 rc fog lights. I bought different led so I can get red foglights lol

For under $50 dollars i would reccomend the HOBBYWING QUICRUN 10BL120, its a sensored esc so you can upgrade to a sensored motor later.
You would need this kit and a crimping tool(if you want to make your life easy) https://www.amazon.com/Female-Connector-Compatible-Futaba-Spektrum/dp/B09MYWTHDZ/ref=asc\_df\_B09MYWTHDZ/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=563656019509&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17035822055780269138&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hv...
Goolrc on amazon. $13 for a full set of wheels and tires and they have more grip than DRA's. Like a lot more. I use them for smooth concrete in my garage.
U might need an adapter like THIS ONE this made for the E to have more upper deck flex to help with grip and speed. I’d recommend this. OR you can connect the upper deck to the mid brace and just cut the brace under the connection. If that makes sense lol
I would use silicone earplugs to lock it and buy this conversion kit for a drift conversion only thing left is a gyro and some fun haha
it's this amazon wing. I'm using the smaller of the 2 but I added my own fins with styrene. https://www.amazon.com/Coolplay-Spoiler-Shell-Mirror-Vehicles/dp/B01IVIVDLM/ref=sr\_1\_1?crid=1HCYN2IJG7663&keywords=rc+drift+wing&qid=1669828932&sprefix=rc+drift+wing%2Caps%2C157&sr=8-1
mmm don't put too much weight on something like a lipo for a drift car as the current draw is extremely low.
Something like this Zeee would work fine and probably give you well over an hour of runtime.
​
Before anyone tries to dispute using cheaper lipos first do the math on getting an hour of runtime out of a 4600mah pack.
norm they have single color strips should only be 2 pads you'd have to solder to. Just search up purple led strip on amazon and you'll find them.

Could use these but I'd try to find some that have the leds closer together.

I like the look and settings on these. Only issue is that one has a bunch of flashy styles like police lights and rainbow and the other is static.
I got around that by splicing the wires and making is so they both used the same plug into the light controller board.
Sure, the batteries are Zeee 7.4v 5200mAh LiPos:
Zeee 7.4V Lipo Battery 2S 50C 5200mAh Lipos Hard Case with Dean-Style T Connector for RC Car Trucks 1/8 1/10 RC Vehicles(2 Packs) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076Z778MJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_BBXKKPDEYMKZJ5G57EVS?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
And the balance charger is this:
HTRC LiPo Charger RC Balance Fast Charger Discharger 1S-6S AC/DC B6V2 Digital Battery Pack Charger for NiCd Li-ion Life NiMH LiHV PB Smart Batteries (Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07V5CPYRS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_AC2TEB27NGB5NYQ2XZ4R?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
After doing some research, these seem to be pretty well regarded batteries for the price point. Know a few people that have been running them for a while now, with no issues. I also snagged a Zeee Lipo bag, but the balance charger above includes a small fireproof battery bag too. Thanks and good luck!
They're $7 on Amazon for a set of 4 or $5 direct from WLToys
Just replace it

Nah, cut them to size and put new connectors on there. It is super easy.
I recommend this servo cause of its availability on Amazon and since it’s quite similar to the rtst. AGFRC 19KG Low-Profile High-Torque Programmable-Digital-Servo - Full Metal Gear CNC Case Brushless Servo for 1/10 RC Models, Control Angle 180° (A50BHL&AGF-SPV3) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083GGZ7K6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_i_7437VEH50EMSP1MRZP9J
I would imagine you can find it cheaper, and not on Amazon..

You will need to buy a battery, charger, paint, transmitter/reciever.
​
there are also hop-up parts that you can add later, or at build time (like bearings) that will increase performance.
I put these on a car recently. Toyoutdoorparts RC 2082 Plating Plating Wheel Rim 4P for HSP 1:10 Offset:9mm On-Road Drift Car https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XQJK7PQ/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_i_6ZQVF9VN6D78WR4TVANA?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Mybad, it redirected to my order page instead of the store page: https://www.amazon.com/Tamiya-Suzuki-Swift-M-Chassis-Wheels/dp/B000FG9SKM/ref=dp_fod_1?pd_rd_i=B000FG9SKM&psc=1

My car isn’t cornering at all and I think I might be using the wrong tire type, goolrc hard rubber tire.
Looking for any tire setup for unfinished concrete floor and hardwood floor. Or if you have any suggestions on suspension setup.
Oof this is just above 2bills. Flysky Noble NB4 Rc Transmitter Receiver FGr4 V2 & FGr4s V2 4 Channels, 2.4GHz Rc Car Remote Controller 4 Channel AFHDS 3 - HOBBYMATE https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HJWQC6H/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_KXASBTPC0SM0ZH5EZQPX
SURPASS HOBBY Rocket 540 V3 Sensored Brushless Motor 10.5T SPEC for 1/10 RC Racing Car Truck Crawler https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08MDW1GZT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_ZPQSC5XMDKVJ3741N736?psc=1 this is the correct motor not the one I put in the picture
I have a radio link 6ch and I love it it’s only $80 for 6 channels can’t beet it
Do you think you could tell me what battery I should get for this motor? RCRunning 540 4370KV 3.175mm Shaft Brushless Motor 45A Waterproof Brushless ESC Combo for 1/10 RC Car (Banana Plug) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GBXMQZ9/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_TRY02134416BK0RNYE2X?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I hear these are fun for the price. 1/28 scale is fun too and electronics will fit. the wltoys k989 (1/28 scale) is a fun platform for awd drifting indoors and has some aftermarket parts support or you can go super fancy with some Atomic stuff. I use my sakura d5 (budget built around 200$us) in my living room and garage so 1/10 can be run ok indoors in not a whole lot of space. Really depends on your budget. For a home built budget rig, I'd probably find a cheap roller off ebay like a tamiya tt02 or redcat and modify that. Have fun with your adventure!
what kinda budget we looking at? need more context for what your looking for, like cheap any scale rc for just drift fun or cheap 1/10 to emulate what people do in competitions and events. this can be fun for some living room drifts or you can piece together a kit like this for around 250 for legit(ish?) rwd drifting. Rtr's are great to jump right in but are much more expensive. More often than not you get what you pay for in this hobby so up to you on budget and what scale your looking for. Have fun!
You may need this to run them off your third channel. Or use a Y splitter and plug the lights into throttle channel. They will stay on all the time. RC Remote Controlled AUX on/Off Electronic Switch Relay for Car Truck Boat LED Light Drone (4A) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08FLZXSD7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_BZZ8CJTC8JW86JW4J88Q
I used this to help toggle lights in my crawler. I assume it will work for you situation also.
That does help, I didn't realize the Pro stock had adjustable timing, turbo, and boost. I'll read a little more and figure out if the USB will work with it, I think it was made for Hobbyking knock-off ESC's https://www.amazon.com/Hobbywing-30112401-XeRun-Stock-Sensored/dp/B01M0A08RM
That is a brushed motor. I don't believe the Hobbywing is brushed compatible.
I assume you are doing a budget/fun build, so you would want this motor: https://www.amazon.com/Hobbywing-30404309-Quicrun-Sensored-Brushless/dp/B073DBMFTV/ref=sr\_1\_4?dchild=1&keywords=hobbywing+10.5T&qid=1623586562&sr=8-4
That’s an ESC, and the old version Tamiya used to supply in kits. You shouldn’t need that as there should be one in the kit you’ll buy along with a motor. You’ll want something like this for transmitter and receiver: https://www.amazon.com/DUMBORC-Transmitter-Receiver-Controller-400m-500m/dp/B07RR81GSB/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=dumbo+rc&qid=1620630898&sprefix=dumbo+&sr=8-4
I’ve not used this one but everyone seems to recommend as a great budget option.
Hey so I forgot about the whole reciever part, is this correct and decent? item
I realized I put the wrong link on my bad, the link is actually this I cant seem to find any good 8-10kg servos on amazon either just 20-35
This is one of the manufacturers. There's like 10 different suppliers or the same cheap mounts. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B088GTJFDY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_341R88G8FRBGCTXQ714W?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I have found this on Amazon. It comes assembled (mostly) and not too bad of a price. I will of course need a radio controller, batteries and body. And down the road I could always add the gyro. But I'm back to the "do I spend this money on bogus electronics, or get stuff that will last"
By the way, I want to say a huge thank you for your time and responses. You have been a huge help!!
Thanks for the response bro! So, would this be suitable? https://www.amazon.co.uk/SUNPADOW-5100mAh-Battery-Vehicles-Racing/dp/B08DKHZZK7/ref=sr_1_4_sspa?crid=3QPZX3R5JN30&dchild=1&keywords=7.4v+lipo+battery&qid=1615503228&sprefix=7.4%2Caps%2C217&sr=8-4-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUExNFAxU0xOTVNHS0xJJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNzc0MDQ5RzY5STdOUEo3TktZJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTAyNjQ3MjA3SEJTR0ROVFFaUDYmd2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGYmYWN0aW9uPWNsaWNrUmVkaXJlY3QmZG9Ob3RMb2dDbGljaz10cnVl

This works on everything on my 3s granite blx. I put it through hell with jumps and wrecks. I never have electronics fall off anymore since I started using this!
all my tape measures are only in inches >.< I'm going to get this thing, which is 19.1x9.1 inches so it should work size wise at least.
​
Mine is just off of Amazon. Has a few different settings and comes with 4 colors. For the cost, its worth it.
